You can buy tint adhesive solvent almost anywhere. Check at Walmart near the tint.

.....you have white wheels?

Use a heat gun on the tint, or failing that, a hairdryer (takes longer) or hot water.

Assuming the wheels are aluminum, strip the paint off and polish them, i'm in the middle of doing two sets (1 set for the Camaro, and 1 set for the Firebird), one word of warning though, it's DAMN HARD WORK!!!.

White rims only came on 94 T/A's for the 25th Anniversary. That may be why their not cleaning up it may be old paint or just a bad paint job on the wheels themselves.
